Social media influencers claim AI agents have made traditional coding obsolete, but enterprise data reveals a different story. Unsupervised AI code generation is causing an explosion in code duplication, massive architectural technical debt, and a severe drop in application security. Real software developers aren't being replaced; their jobs have evolved into high-level auditors who must secure and refactor the messy logic left behind by these automated systems.
